Tree branches swinging
Gently on a summer wind
Birds spread their small wings
The water reflects
A beautiful scene for boats
Floating down the stream
The sun shines brightly
Down on passersby smiling
A radiant beam
What a wonderful
Day to be out on a stream
Letting it carry
You to a new place
So you can see the beauty
and wish to be new.
